Confused
Across the dark room
I noticed him there.
Standing tall and proud
like a lion in his lair.
As he walked towards me,
my heart trembled within.
I had nowhere to hide,
his gaze drawing me in.
Tall and handsome,
gentle but strong.
His honest, caring eyes,
they knew all along.
As his eyes took me in,
he saw what was within.
My heart skipped a beat
as our hands they did meet.
Listen to my heart or
listen to my head.
This could end in disaster,
'Too young', a fear I dread
Should I listen to my heart?
or to my head instead?
These feelings he has awakened
leave me trembling and shaking.
With his kind and handsome face
and his mischevious smile.
He resurrected lost feelings
that I had hidden inside.
What do I do now?
What will I do then?
To my emotions will I bow?
or erect a wall around me, again?
When we meet again,
shall I surrender?
Or run away like I have done
each time that he has called.
Does he realize
what is happening to me?
I have kept these feelings
hidden deep inside, deep down, within.
I have pretended for so long
that I had no feelings inside.
They had been squashed
into the ground so very long ago.
My brave face
to the world I do show.
But in private,
scared and trembling, I am so.
A Woman on the outside,
a lost child within.
This will end in tragedy and
my head's all in a spin.
I can't help myself,
I'm caught in his trap.
I feel I want to give in to him,
he reads me like a map
I only let my guard down
for a very short while.
He walked right on in
with his engulfing smile.
I wonder what will happen now?
What has he done to me?
Shall I go with my feelings
or just let things be?
